Green Energy causing people to die in Houston
My family has been lucky. My home in Houston has, fortunately, had gas, water, and power for most of these last couple of days. Many of my friends, and about half of Houston, have not been so lucky. Some local media is blaming power generating plants and poor management. Unless you read the WSJ or watch Fox News, that is probably what you are thinking as well. Truth is, last week 42% of Texas’ energy consumption was coming from Wind Energy. (Because we are forced to take it and because our government is subsidizing it.) Wind turbines in Texas froze in this crazy cold weather that we are experiencing. That means natural gas had to all of a sudden double in production, and there are not enough gas-powered generating plants, because wind turbines were installed instead. Yes, the very fuel that our government has been doing their best to prevent us from producing and transporting. People will die from this. This is a real crisis that we could have handled, not the make-believe climate change crisis that politicians keep fabricating in order to get more money from you.

To be clear, I care a great deal about the environment. And I am not saying that the climate doesn’t change. It always has and always will. I am saying that man-made catastrophic climate change is a hoax. And a power grab by politicians. When politicians do something "Green", what they are doing is actually the transfer of "Green" money. If they cared about the environment and they cared about people, they would let oil and gas produce. People could live through a weather crisis like the one we are in today.

4 年Ten years ago Rick Perry was warned about this possibility. Texas leaders failed to heed warnings that left the state's power grid vulnerable to winter extremes, experts say Texas officials knew winter storms could leave the state’s power grid vulnerable, but they left the choice to prepare for harsh weather up to the power companies — many of which opted against the costly upgrades. That, plus a deregulated energy market largely isolated from the rest of the country’s power grid, left the state alone to deal with the crisis, experts said. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/02/17/texas-power-grid-failures/ Perry's response to the current disaster: “Texans would be without electricity for longer than three days to keep the federal government out of their business”.
